if it’s life affirming – sock it to me

{..}

nemesis: someone or something
that continues to oppose you and
cannot easily be defeated

“sock it to me”
or run away
it’s all good

“Latin of invidia occurs in contexts
where the sense of justice has been offended,
and pain is experienced at the sight of undeserved wealth, prestige or authority, exercised without
shame (pudor);
this is the close parallel with Greek
nemesis” – Wikipedia
